Although I share your dislike of bro trucks because they dilute the respect of people that actually use their trucks for what they're built to do, I still have a soft spot for some of the old Cummins logos.

I believe it's pronounced "Yodge"
Not any worse than this.
A rampaging lion is a very prominent symbol in heraldry even with the artistic liberty taken with updating the logo. I respectfully disagree.
At least they're using ZF as a transmission supplier now... Small victories?
Don't just have a good day, have an American day.
To answer the author's question, no, apparently we can't get along.
Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
While this engine isn't an F1 engine Anima is on the right track. Granted, they haven't raced this engine at LeMans yet (only 24 at Daytona, which they didn't finish). As a race engine, it probably drives like shit at slow speed, they would absolutely have trouble driving it on the street, and I can attest that they…
Many people have thought the same as you only to see their expensive race engine get destroyed by everyday driving. Redlining an engine that's built for it isn't as bad as you might think. Durability on the race track is not the same as durability in everyday driving.
I see. It would be like a TSD with a fuel limit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TSD_Rally
Essentially that's one of the goals of endurance racing. The less fuel you use, the less time you spend in the pits refueling. They already use the Delta Wing in endurance racing (they just competed in the Rolex 24 at Daytona last weekend although they didn't finish).
It's already in effect. They have been doing it since the dawn of the auto industry over 100 years ago. This engine is a race engine and racing technology has been filtering down to regular cars since the beginning.
One thing that needs to be made clear is that this engine is a race engine. It probably costs them upwards of $50,000 to build and it will only last for a few thousand miles before requiring a complete overhaul.
How long do you want the engine in your Infinity to last? Race engines are on the ragged edge of reliability and usually require a complete overhaul after a few thousand miles.
Me and some of the guys at work were joking that they could turn an F1 car in to a gas turbine hybrid. This is essentially what they are doing now, combined cycle reciprocating engine supercharged (turbosupercharged if you want to use the older terms) by a gas turbine electric generator.
I only watched a little but it sounds about right. I'll watch the rest later. What movie is that from?
My irritation was that there basically were no rules. There are many logical gaps and questionable choices of the list but it doesn't really matter because it's user generated content which lead to another source of irritation: wouldn't a source crowd like the commentators of Jalopnik have enough good suggestions so…
I would say that the LS is the spiritual successor to the SBC but the only thing they have in common are: push rod rocker operated OHV, V8, some displacements, and bore spacing. Everything else is totally different. The LS wasn't even an update, it was a complete redesign.
You're right, it shouldn't be taken seriously; it's user generated content on the Internet by people I don't know and also the question was up for interpretation.
